Most magnets have two poles: north and south, or positive and negative, in a familiar arrangement called a "dipole." But ...

Before the sun fully formed, tiny bits of rock were already recording the magnetic forces present in the very early solar ...

(imagedb.com/Shutterstock.com) Unlike what a certain donut company suggests, the world actually runs on magnetism. It's essential for generating power, building (electric) vehicles, and powering ...

Magnetism in molecular materials is not written into the molecules alone. It emerges from how those molecules sit next to one ...

Cobalt atoms wedged between layers of tantalum diselenide produce an electronic signature that physicists at the University of Central Florida read as altermagnetism, the magnetic order now ranked ...

University of Toronto-led physicists have shown that hidden octupolar magnetic order leaves a detectable handedness signature ...

Scientists have discovered evidence of altermagnetism in a thin, highly tunable material that could help electronics use electron spin instead of relying only on electrical charge. The unusual ...

Moving toward an era of computing with 'spin' after chargeA team led by Professor Madhab Neupane at the University of Central Florida (UCF) has announced the experimental observation of a new type of ...

Ancient grains inside one of the oldest known meteorites reveal that a surprisingly strong magnetic field existed during the solar system’s first 200,000 years. The discovery suggests magnetism worked ...

Forbes contributors publish independent expert analyses and insights. The Universe is out there, waiting for you to discover it. This article is more than 5 years old. A hammer appears to stick to a ...

Magnetic properties in molecular materials depend not only on the molecular components themselves but also on their solid-state organization. In charged π-electronic systems, electrostatic and ...
